Paradise Knights are SADA Summer Season 2024 Premiers and $300 richer after taking a tension-filled grand final from 8-8 to 10-8 by winning the final two singles games. Both sides have competed in multiple grand finals over recent seasons and this one will live on in SADA folklore.

Cobras Black engineered a grand final shock by defeating the previously unbeaten Paradise Pigs 10-3 to claim the $300 prizemoney. The Cobras waited until the finals to play their best three games of the season and will advance to Premier A next year, along with the Pigs, and both teams will no doubt give plenty of top tier teams a run for their money.
